Except for cake frosting, frozen yogurt, and gummy candy, I am a very healthy eater. I have grown to love the taste of Kale (no lie) and get excited for a bowl of Quinoa. My glass of Cabernet seems to accompany steak as well as it does tofu! I recently had the pleasure of meeting a lifestyle nutrition/ wellness guru named Marlyn Diaz aka THE HOLISTIC NUTRITIONISTA. I was blown away by her knowledge and personal journey. She is a certified Holistic Nutritionist and Lifestyle Educator with many years of training behind her as well as various degrees and certificates in health and nutrition. More importantly, Marlyn practices what she preaches and can speak and demonstrate from experience. ”Back in the 1970’s, while in high school I was young, struggling with my weight and unhappy. Physicians, fad diets and conventional medicine couldn’t “fix” me. Through my own searches I discovered books on health and wellness that approached, from a unique perspective, how one’s body actually works. I learned the truth about how different foods, vitamins & minerals, and lifestyle choices affect your health. Attending medical conferences, studying holistic nutrition, and learning about functional medicine and alternative health therapies has helped me to form more than a base level of knowledge. I’ve learned from some amazing and highly educated people – Physicians, Acupuncturists, Chiropractors, Energy Healers and other Holistic Nutritionists, like myself. I’ve put into practice the knowledge that I have absorbed from so many studies – learning how to enhance health, balance nutrition and affect the aging process with the right foods, supplements and lifestyle choices.
This journey brought realization that natural and permanent change is within reach for all us, and that it can be done without chemical-laden diet drugs, weight loss surgery, and fad diets. I’ve learned that our bodies were designed to help us help ourselves. I’m so grateful that I have gained the knowledge and tools to help not only myself, but also others.”
How authentic and sincere is that?
Whether it is an interview with an exercise professional (i.e the man behind the beloved Cardio Barre) to the benefits of cinnamon beyond a yummy taste, to creative yet delicious recipes (some peppered in chia seeds) to healthy cleanse tips, Marlyn provides her followers with a clear cut and proven healthy lifestyle journey. As she promises, her team is “there to support you on your road to looking, feeling and being your best! Their mission is to educate, inspire, elevate and make nutrition FUN. All while sharing our passion for good food, good friends and a healthy lifestyle. Let us help empower you to reach your wellness goals and create balance from the inside out!” I swear, Marlyn is no joke and I have become such a fan. My kids are eating Chia seeds and do not even realize it. holisticnutritionista.com
